3. What are the first four terms of the sequence represented by the expression n(n-1) - 4?
-2, 2, 6, 10
-3,0,3,6
-4,-2, 2, 8
-5,-4,-2,6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  -4, -2, 2, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first four terms will be found by evaluating the expression for values of n that are 1, 2, 3, 4. Evaluating for n=1 is sufficient to determine the correct answer choice:

  n(n -1) -4

  1(1 -1) -4 = -4 . . . . matches the third choice

PLS HELP!! AND HURRY!! Find an expression for the nth term ( tn ) in each of the following sequences:

Answers

If the pattern continues, so that each term is separated by a distance of 3, then the sequence is given by the recursive rule

[tex]\begin{cases}a_1=1\\a_n=a_{n-1}+3&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}[/tex]

From this definition, we can write [tex]a_n[/tex] in terms of [tex]a_1[/tex]:

[tex]a_2=a_1+3[/tex]

[tex]a_3=a_2+3=(a_1+3)+3=a_1+2\cdot3[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

(p+e)/(r-n) =  x

Step-by-step explanation:

p + nx=rx-e

Add e to each side

p +e+ nx=rx-e+e

p +e+ nx=rx

Subtract nx from each side

p +e+ nx - nx=rx-nx

p+e = rx -nx

Factor out x

p+e = x(r-n)

Divide each side by (r-n)

(p+e)/(r-n) =  x(r-n)/(r-n)

(p+e)/(r-n) =  x

90 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the speed of the slower car, and x+20 is the speed of the faster car, then:

5x + 5(x+20) = 1000

x + x + 20 = 200

look at the whole thing first. you see that the field = player so first you do 120/3. you get 40. then for teh second you have two "40's" and an unknown. so you do 101-80 because 40+40=80 and get 21. for the fourth you have 21/?=7 . we can do 21/7=3 to find this. so the helmet is 3. for the final we have 40-21+6 and that equals 25. thank you ;)

What is the length of line segment KJ?


2 \sqrt{3} units

3 \sqrt{2} units

3 \sqrt{3} units

Answers

Please consider the attached file.

We can see that triangle JKM is a right triangle, with right angle at M. Segment KM is 6 units and segment MJ is 3 units. We can also see that KJ is hypotenuse of right triangle.

We will use Pythagoras theorem to solve for KJ as:

[tex]KJ^2=KM^2+MJ^2[/tex]

[tex]KJ^2=6^2+3^2[/tex]

[tex]KJ^2=36+9[/tex]

Mr.McNeil bought two magazines for 7.45 and one book for 14.95. If the sales tax is 6% , what is the total cost of Mr.McNeil’s purchase?

Answers

Answer:

total cost = $22.4 + $1.12 = $23.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr McNeil bought 2 magazines for $7.45 and 1 book for $14.95 . The sales tax is 6% . The total cost of Mr McNeil can be calculated as follows.

He bought 2 magazines for $7.45  .This means the sum of the prize of the 2 magazine he bought is $7.45 and the prize for the single book he bought is $14.95.  The total cost of the items he bought excluding the sales tax is the sum of the whole items he bought.

total cost excluding sales tax = $7.45 + 14.95 = $22.4

The sales tax is 5% which can be calculated as follows

5/100 × 22.4 = 112/100 = $1.12

The total cost of Mr McNeil purchase including his sales tax is

total cost = $22.4 + $1.12 = $23.52

A car travels 10km southeast and then 15 km in a direction 60 degrees north of east. What is the magnitude of the car's resultant vector?

Answers

Answer: 15.85km

Step-by-step explanation:

The car starts at the point (0,0)

Let's define east as the positive x-axis and north as the positive y-axis.

first, the car travels 10km southeast, so the angle is -45° from the east.

Then the new position of the car is:

(10km*cos(-45°), 10km*sin(-45°)) = (7.07km, -7.07km)

Now, from this point the car travels 15km with an angle of 60° (counting from the east)

So the new position is:

(7.07km + 15km*cos(60°), -7.07km + 15km*sin(60°)) = (14.57km  , 5.91km)

The magnitude of a vector (x, y) is √(x^2 + y^2)

So the magnitude of the vector (14.57km  , 5.91km) is:

√((14.57km)^2 + (5.91km)^2) = 15.85km

The magnitude of the car's resultant vector is 15.72.

Given that,

A car travels 10km southeast,

And then 15 km in a direction 60 degrees north of east.

We have to find,

The magnitude of the car's resultant vector.

According to the question,

To resultant direction calculate by using the sum of vectors following all the steps given below.

A car travels 10 km southeast,

And then 15 km in a direction 60 degrees north of east.

The first vector has module is 10 and angle is 315°,

In the south direction, the angle is  270° and east is 360°,

So the angle in southeast,

[tex]\rm = \dfrac{270+360}{2}\\\\= \dfrac{630}{2}\\\\= 315 \ degree[/tex]

The second vector has module 15 and angle = 40°

Decompose both vectors in their horizontal and vertical component:

The horizontal component of the first vector is,

[tex]\rm = 10 \times cos(315) = 10 \times 0.70= 7.07[/tex]

The vertical component of the first vector is,

[tex]= \rm 10 \times sin(315) = -7.07[/tex]

The horizontal component of the second vector is,

[tex]\rm = 15 \times cos(60) = 15 \times 0.5= 7.5[/tex]

The vertical component of the second vector is,

[tex]\rm = 15 \times sin(40) = 15 \times 0.86= 12.99[/tex]

The sum of the horizontal component of the resultant vector is,

[tex]= 7.07+7.5=14.57[/tex]

And the sum of the vertical component of the resultant vector is,

[tex]= -7.07+12.99=5.91[/tex]

The magnitude of the vector (14.57km, 5.91km) is:

Therefore,

The magnitude of the car's resultant vector is,

[tex]\rm Resulatant = \sqrt{(14.57)^2+ (5.91)^2}\\\\ Resulatant = \sqrt{212.28+ 34.92} \\\ \\ Resulatant = \sqrt{247.20}\\\\ Resulatant = 15.72[/tex]

Hence, The required magnitude of the car's resultant vector is 15.72.

f = (150 + 120) / 2

f = 270/2 = 135
